I just can't resist this.............

Jacob's portraits

Jacob's portriats of Mom and Dad. We are being serious he says.

I like to move it, move it...... not when the camera is rolling.

Joso on the flo-

Risk

In the fashion of true gamers the world round, Jacob revels in his first taste of WORLD DOMINATION the only true way to experience RISK (according to Alan Williams, by the way, he's gunning for you next!).

I learned my lesson too, about being nice to small defenseless children.

Pinewood Derby is for the boys! (yah right it is)

The side view.
I must admit it was fun. Jacob told Allen what he wanted his car to look like and Allen complied. Jacob did a lot of sanding and base painting but don't think for one second Allen didn't have the funnest week of this year....reliving the glory of Pinewoods gone before...

The back view

The Front view

Jacob placed 5th out of 21 and was awarded the MOST COURTEOUS SCOUT award. His mother liked that but he thought it was kinda lame. Next year....there is always next year.

The Competition....The brown car right next to Jacob's was the winner overall.

Jacob's head in front there as Lightning smokes the competition!

Girls in the Bathroom.....

Jake may think it's bad now, sharing one bath with three girlys but this is just the beginning!

Just a typical night in the bathroom, an attempt to get Jora onboard with the whole "down with diapers" movement in our house (pipe dream, I fear) and two girls in the pink tub. This is before Julia pours water on Jo's head and the whole thing dissolves into hysteria. They now bathe seperately.

Julia and the Princess Cake, or Julia turns 3....

Hot on the heels of Jora's first birthday and Christmas comes Julia's third birthday!! In keeping with our December tradition, Julia is running a temperature of 103 degrees on her birthday. She still manages to rouse herself enough to open presents and lay on the couch admiring her Dad's handiwork on her first princess theme birthday cake. She did manage to avoid the official first day of true underwear wearing though.....

I'm a Barbie girl.......

........in a Barbie world.......
FANTASTIC!
